@chrispwalters1 Thank you!

Pray for Capel United Benefice and the Revd Dr Jeremy Ive, Revd Canon Pamela Ive, and their Church Administrator, Liz Wood.

@wessexwildlife @LBFlyawayhome I remember conversations after church about coffee mate in the 70s. Cold milk rather than Coffee Mate was worse than any heresy!

@LBFlyawayhome We were discussing 70s cuisine last week after church. One lady remembers Coffee Mate sandwiches and admitted that she still indulges. I remember having butter and sugar sandwiches. Probably wouldn’t choose that for lunch now, but tinned cream of tomato soup with white bread: yes

It is very important for all of us to remember that telling an abuse story, facing the truth, and expressing the deep and painful emotions that keep company with trauma takes tremendous courage.

So often, rather than suffer involvement with messy injustices and corrupt systems, we choose the quiet/easy way, and sin against Justice himself rather than allow the suffering of others and the injustices they live with daily to alter our schedules, comfort level, & tidy lives.

@AnnetteBellyou @LBFlyawayhome They are about thesize of my mother’s eclair tin although later she piped the straight onto a baking sheet and often made mini eclairs and I could eat more!

@LBFlyawayhome I love the look on the girls face, as if she's looking at the boy, with a sense of amusement and thinking "what a greedy 🐖" Also, is it just me who's never had sausage salad ? And what are those things that look like éclairs, but are smaller than sausages ? Mini éclairs maybe 🤔

Great talk on #clergy wellbeing from @LizGraveling at the @ClergySupportUK AGM. Highlighting four challenges impacting the wellbeing of clergy: exhaustion, isolation, demoralisation (eg not hitting centrally-set growth targets) and financial stress caused by inadequate stipends.

Abuse of any kind comes from the heart of the person who abuses. It is not due to the victim’s behavior, clothing, wrongdoing, or anything else - the perpetrator is exposing the contents of their own heart and mind - their actions speak about them and them alone.

@DickieDogfather @JoshR319 @networkrail @GarethDennis @NetworkRailEUS That is so true but also if you are walking to catch a train with cases and bags using a phone could be impractical and/or dangerous.

@JoshR319 @networkrail @GarethDennis @NetworkRailEUS "We don't need a departures board because everyone uses apps now." Getting close to the point where you can't do anything at all without a smartphone. I hate that.

One of the worst decisions made by @networkrail to an already poorly managed station, by replacing its main departures screens with a hideous and overly distracting advertising screen. A before and after comparison - @GarethDennis @NetworkRailEUS #Euston #LondonEuston

@TWellsCouncil Is there any chance of @LBFlyawayhome being invited to The Amelia Scott?

@LBFlyawayhome Sewing my Binca table mat caused the first of many arguments with sewing teachers throughout my school career. It is still slightly triggering to see Binca but I defied them all and still sew! The “Binca Incident” led to the resignation of the teacher. 😬

Drawing: Possible causes of your problems. I've been appalled at the scenes we've witnessed over the last few days. It's utterly unacceptable that people should have to live in fear because of the colour of their skin. [Polite comments only, please.]

Responding to systemic abuse begins with facing the truth. Jesus lived as part of a dominated group of people under a pervasive system of government. All the religious systems were corrupt. They dehumanized people, isolated & excluded people, & crushed people with heavy burdens.

@KingCrawa @DrFrancisYoung I was your DDO but you are not an ordinand so I can no longer direct you unless presumably you become a bishop ordinand which I think is a thing! Check the ordinal! The Director of M&M could be lay or from another denomination if I recall the advert correctly.

@DrFrancisYoung @Turkeyplucker @MaaziObum Or rather the DDO for this diocese is a DD. I'm not sure if she counts as my DDO anymore. I've also been pointing out there's no reason why the Director of Mission and Ministry role (currently vacant) has to be held by a Priest

How did I not know that Sacram diaconatus ordinem (1967), Paul VI's motu proprio re-establishing the permanent diaconate, was issued in response to a request from married ex-Anglican clergymen in 1965? Mind. Blown. 🤯

@scopestake I usually use what I am in whatever activity I am doing. In these cases I am Mrs except with a slip of a finger when booking on Eurostar and I became Lord Pamela Ive!

Paying a parking ticket. (I know…). Here are the title options. Are the titles based upon frequency use…? On that basis what does that say about archdeacons? 😊

I don’t know whether polling stations are like children - and you’re not supposed to have favourites - but this is definitely one of mine - Arnold Cooke Hall in Tudely, right next to All Saints Church with its Chagall windows. #GE24

Any @SeeOfRochester clergy concerned about this, please get in touch #retirement #housing #pensions #costoflivinginretirement

When a person with power uses another for his or her own ends, discards or destroys another, abuse has occurred.

@revandrewaxon Not a good photo I now realise. A small exhibition but some good exhibits of Isabella Gilmore of Rochester Deaconess fame!
